My second favorite was the carrot cake but honestly everything was good so you really can't go wrong! We gave 4 stars because the chocolate cake was too dark for our preference and the lemon ricotta cookies were good but not out of this world like some of the other reviews mentioned. Definitely a must try! We will be back to try some of the other desserts!

I decided on the apple butter latte, roommate got the pumpkin chai. They were both really good drinks. TBH the latte wasn't as sweet as I was expecting but it was still tasty as the espresso tasted delicious. I also bought a matcha chocolate chip cookie which was heavy on the matcha flavor which I enjoyed. The ambiance was really comforting and cozy. Something about the lighting made it feel that way. It's almost decorated like someone's nice living room. It just felt good and I immediately thought about how my other coffee loving friend needs to come here. They also have a rewards system where you can get 5 dollars off for your birthday which is pretty sweet. Ok thanks for reading this, highly recommend!!

I really wanted to give this place 5 stars because the staff was that good. From the second I…read morewalked in, everyone was genuinely friendly and made me feel right at home. The coffee was really good too, and I loved how creative the menu was. They definitely have some fun drinks you don't see everywhere. The food, though... it was just okay. Not bad by any means, but it didn't really match how much I enjoyed everything else. I had a muffin that looked amazing but tasted a little underwhelming. The inside is a vibe. Plenty of seating whether you're meeting up with friends, knocking out some work, or just enjoying a coffee by yourself. I'd absolutely come back for the coffee and the atmosphere. If the food stepped up a notch, this would easily be a 5-star.

We really liked that they use single origin coffee unlike Starbucks, lol. The space feels modern yet comfortable, with plenty of windows for people-watching or enjoying the nice weather. They offer both indoor seating and an outdoor patio, making it a great spot to sip your favorite coffee, tea, or espresso. They also have a nice selection of breakfast items, including pastries and muffins that pair perfectly with your drink. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and created a positive atmosphere from the moment we walked in. As an added bonus, they also have a drive-thru if you're in a hurry. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd definitely stop by again.

The parking right in front isn't the best but there is ample parking in the shops surrounding the business. The environment was lowkey with several patrons on laptops or catching up with friends. I had no idea what I wanted but definitely wanted to try their drinks and a biscuit. I ended up having them customize an iced caramel latte and ordering a cheddar and cheese biscuit. Everything tasted amazingggg. The biscuit was fresh and I didn't feel heavy after eating it. The latte had the perfect amount of sweetness. Both items complemented each other well and the pricing was very fair. They do sell their own coffee and it seemed like everyone had a cup. I think one of the better things about it is the drive-thru for people who don't want to get out the car. I am confident enough to use the drive-thru now that I have a go-to order. I rate this place a 10/10 and I will definitely be back to try some of the pastries and different coffee flavors.

Kookaburra...what happened?…read more When we first moved to Saint John's a few years ago from California, I thought the speciality coffee was sure to disappoint. However, to my surprise, Kookaburra had phenomenal lattes. On top of that it's a great place to bring the kids and was our Saturday ritual we looked to do after taking my girls to the dance studio nearby. However, for the past 6 months the quality of the lattes has deteriorated. The lattes come out either too bitter, watery and/or EXTREMELY hot. (It is possible to burn the milk while you froth it.) I'm not sure what it is, maybe the machines aren't being cleaned frequently, the espresso isn't dialed in, there is a new staff that isn't trained properly and pays attention to details? This is also not a one time occasion. I have come back many times and hoped the quality would be different. I've given back my latte and pointed out its ways too hot , the milk hasn't frothed well, etc, but still leave disappointed. One thing that I can't wrap my mind around is that there is a coffee shop about 10 minutes (Mikes Pour) which sources their beans Kookaburra and were initially trained by Kookaburra. Same recipes , just different name AND better taste. This place can be the perfect shop for the neighborhood. And I love the brand and was inclined to buy some swag. I'll be back eventually , with the hope the quality has improved. This place has the potentially to be 5 stars..

Apparently 21 Queen Street does and I was able to get it delivered before I got home from work. I ordered the Blood Orange Peach Lemonade, a Butterfly Peaberry Lemonade, and a Hot Americano with Apple, Cinnamon Roll, and Almond Milk. When we got them the labels on the cold drinks were flipped so we started drinking each others. I was actually drinking his Blood Orange Peach Lemonade labeled as the Butterfly Peaberry and he was drinking my Butterfly labeled as the Blood Orange. The Blood Orange was really sweet but still good and he stated the Butterfly Peaberry was subtly sweet and flowery. He drank the Americano but he stated it was bland. That may have been because he drank it the next day. It smelled really good when it was delivered, not sure what happened after that. I'd get them again. They got some other tasty sounding drinks

There is seating both inside and outside, sweet and savory treats and a really good coffee selection. Inside is clean, neat and relaxing and that's where we chose to enjoy our coffee on this hot day.

It was really a nice blend. Lucky Goat is a good choice if you're looking for a great coffee shop and bakery near the Town Center.
